Microsoft money free download - Microsoft Office 2011, Microsoft Office 2008 update, Microsoft Office 2016 Preview, and many more programs. I have been using Microsoft Money for about 15 years and it has been very useful over that time, however Microsoft stopped selling and supporting it since the beginning of last year and I am.

1. Microsoft Money For Mac Os X
2. Microsoft Money Equivalent For Mac

There were times when Microsoft Money is the most important software program on our computer, but time has changed. Although this software has been discontinued, it is still available to download for free. The question is, is it still worth to use? Or should we just move to other newer personal finance program? Well, to answer this question, let’s refresh our memory about this software.

• Microsoft has ended support for Microsoft Money and there have been no new versions since 2008. As you probably know, to run Money on your Mac you need a copy of Parallels and a copy of a Windows operating system. Purchased new those are rather expensive.

• Microsoft Money Plus is Now Available for Free Lowell Heddings @lowellheddings August 6, 2010, 2:30am EDT Last year, Microsoft stopped making new versions of Microsoft Money, their personal money management software package—and now they’ve made it available for everybody for free well, sorta.
• I moved to a Mac two years ago, and kept my old, slow computer alive purely for running Microsft Money, but alas this is now dying. Why oh why won't Microsoft bring Money back and keep up with the trend by introducing a version for Mac computers. It was such a GREAT programme and nothing comes close in comparison.

What is Microsoft Money?

Microsoft Money is an excellent personal finance management software which was launched back in 1991. It was developed to be used in computers with Windows operating system. But later, since Money 2000 to Money 2006 to be exact, this program is also available in Windows Mobile.

Back in the days, this program was a commercial success due to its excellent features that let the users viewing their bank account balance, tracking their expenses as well as getting online supports. However, in 2008 Microsoft announced that they would not release a new version of Money and finally on June 30, 2009, it was officially discontinued.

To replace the old Microsoft Money, Microsoft Money Plus Sunset was released in 2010. But it is safe to say that Money Plus Sunset was a huge downgrade compared to the old version because it is missing some of the program’s best features, including the online support.

Two versions of Microsoft Money Plus Sunset is available—Deluxe and Home and Business version. The Deluxe version replaced Microsoft Money Plus Premium, Deluxe, and Essential edition while the Home and Business version replaces Microsoft Money Plus Home and Business. It is available to download for free, and it supports Windows XP SP3, Windows Vista and Windows 7.

In 2012, it was announced that Microsoft Money was revived and it is now called MSN Money. However, instead of providing a personal finance management tool like the old version, it is only capable of showing some financial news and worldwide stock.

Missing Features in Microsoft Money Plus Sunset

Here are some great features in Microsoft Money that don’t exist anymore in Microsoft Money Plus Sunset:

• Direct account and transaction statement update. Every form of online updates and supports are no longer there.
• Stock quotes and tax planning.
• Online payment.
• Data import from a non-US edition of Microsoft Money.

Some Good Features You Can Still Use in Microsoft Money Plus Sunset

Even though some of the best features from the old version are gone, Microsoft Money Plus Sunset is still capable of doing these important functions:

• Entering transaction to financial account manually
• Tracking expenses
• Creating a budget
• Import transactions with OFX and QIF
• Creating and estimating personal cash flow.
• It comes with some third-party add-ons such as MSMoneyQuotes to update quotes and PocketSense to download bank account statements.

So, is Microsoft Money still worth downloading? Well, it depends on what you need. It lacks the good features from the old Microsoft Money, and the absence of online support makes it weaker compared to other personal management software. But at least it’s free, and its current features can still be used for simple financial management tasks.

Microsoft Money is a personal finance management software program by Microsoft. It has capabilities for viewing bank account balances, creating budgets, and tracking expenses, among other features.^[1] It was designed for computers using the Microsoft Windowsoperating system, and versions for Windows Mobile were also available (available for Money 2000-2006 on select versions of Windows Mobile, up to, but not including, Windows Mobile 5.0).

Money is no longer being actively developed as a retail program. From its inception in 1991 until its discontinuation in 2009, Microsoft Money was commercial software. Microsoft discontinued sales of the software on June 30, 2009 and removed access to online services for existing Money installations in January 2011.^[2] In 2010, Microsoft released a replacement version, called Microsoft Money Plus Sunset, which allows users to open and edit Money data files, but lacks any online features or support.^[3] It is available in two editions: Deluxe, and Home & Business.

In 2012, Money returned as a Windows Store app, however this version of Money was designed as a news aggregator for personal finance, investing, and real estate. Other features include stock tracking across the world markets, a mortgage calculator, and a currency converter. It does not have any of the personal accounting and book keeping/money management features of the legacy desktop program.

Localization[edit]

There were localized editions of Microsoft Money for the United Kingdom, France, Japan, Canada and an International English edition for other English speaking countries. However, Microsoft had not updated the U.K., French and international editions since Money 2005. The last Canadian edition was Money 2006.

There were also localized editions for other countries, such as Russia, Brazil, Germany and Italy. However, these editions were discontinued due to what was believed to be an insufficient user-base to justify the expense of localization for more recent editions or the expense to integrate support for the national online-banking standard like HBCI in Germany.

Microsoft offered a free downloadable time-limited trial version of Microsoft Money Plus.^[4] This trial version can import data files from the Canadian edition of Money,^[5] but not from other non-US editions.^[6][7] Users upgrading from other non-US editions must manually export and reimport their accounts, and may have to re-enter certain information by hand.^[8]

History[edit]

The first version of Microsoft Money dates back to 1991 and was originally part of the Microsoft Home series.^[9]

Due to Microsoft's propensity to market product versions using the year number rather than the actual version number, the version number reported in the About dialogue box may not actually reflect that of the packaging of the distribution media.

Note that a version 13.x was never created.

Release history[edit]

Discontinuation of Money[edit]

In August 2008, Microsoft announced that it would stop releasing a new version of Money each year and had no version planned for 2009. The company also announced that it would no longer ship boxed versions of Microsoft Money to retail stores and would instead sell the product only as online downloads.^[15]

Microsoft Money For Mac Os X

On June 10, 2009, Microsoft announced that it would stop developing Money, would stop selling it by March 18 by next year, and would continue supporting it until January 31, 2011.^[2] The company cited the changing needs of the marketplace as the reason for Money's demise, stating that 'demand for a comprehensive personal finance toolset has declined.'^[16] Product-activation servers used for Money 2007 and beyond were also to be deactivated after January 31, 2011, preventing these versions from being reinstalled after that date.

Money Plus Sunset[edit]

On June 17, 2010, Microsoft announced the release of Money Plus Sunset,^[17][18] a downloadable version of Money Plus Deluxe and Money Plus Home & Business. Money Plus Sunset does not require online activation or the installation of any previous version of Money on the user's computer, and it should not be installed over the original 2008 version, if online services are still required.^[16]

Money Plus Sunset comes with most of the functionality that was available in the retail versions of Money Plus. The features missing are:^[19]

• Money Plus Sunset cannot import data files from non-US editions of Money
• Money Plus Sunset is missing all the online services features from earlier versions of Money, e.g.:
  • automatic statement downloads initiated by Money (though users may import downloadable OFX and QIF statements from one's financial institution into the user's Money file)
  • online bill payments
  • online investment quotes (though one can 'go to the Portfolio Manager and Update Prices – Update Prices Manually')

A few third party add-ons have been made to overcome the online limitations of the sunset edition:

Microsoft Money Equivalent For Mac

• MSMoneyQuotes^[20] is a for-pay tool to update quotes. The add-on was written by an ex-Microsoft employee who coded the Portfolio Manager in Money.
• PocketSense^[21] is a free tool to download bank account statements (via OFX) and quotes.
